Chapter 230: The Choice of Fate

readx;

Yi Xuan was worried to death when he first received this task, and after entering, he began to look forward to it, and when he played the game, he thought that he must win the game, but he really waited until he won, and when he faced the reward, he didn't know why, and he was so calm at this time, he walked to the demon king step by step, and looked at the two cards in his hand. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

These two cards are not the same as those printed on the usual game consoles, in addition to the size is a little too large, the texture also looks more high-grade, and there is even a vague metallic matte.

The one on the left, white with gold trim, and eleven large heart-shaped markers in the center.

The one on the right, black in texture, with silver trim, is a skull-like mark in the center

However, unlike in the past, there are no instructions on these two cards, except for those two markers, there are no hints.

Yi Xuan looked at the two cards carefully, and the Demon King was not in a hurry, he raised his hand for a long time, waiting for Yi Xuan to ask

"What are these two cards?" Yi Xuan didn't act rashly, it was better to be cautious with this demon king, in case he reached out and finished taking one, and then the demon king said to him, Okay, you can go to die now, where to reason.

But he is very familiar with the patterns on these two cards, he has been in contact with it since he first entered the game hall, these two groups are the front and back of the game currency produced by the game hall, it is a skeleton and a red heart, when he first got the game currency, he also studied it carefully, so what do these two cards mean?

Although it was only two cards, combined with the various mysterious signs about this mission before, Yi Xuan felt as if he was facing a major choice that would determine his future fate, so how could he do it casually without asking clearly.

Seeing Yi Xuan's cautious appearance, the Demon King replied with an expressionless face: "These two cards represent two different lives, you see the one on the left, which represents the peaceful life of normal people, choose it, you can leave everything that annoys you, and exit this game hall forever, of course, all the abilities you learned before will be eliminated, and correspondingly, the life you consume will also be replenished, whether you have no intention of losing it, or you lose it yourself."

And the benefits you get in reality that have nothing to do with the arcade will not be affected in any way. Speaking of this, the Demon King's skull mask-like eyes suddenly blinked at Yi Xuan, as if to tell Yi Xuan, I also know everything about you in real life.

Yi Xuan's heart suddenly suddenly, and he said in his heart Why did this demon king deliberately emphasize the benefits he got in reality, as if he knew that he had won the tens of millions because of the ability of the game hall, but before Yi Xuan could think about it carefully, the demon king had already continued.

"That means that once you choose this card, you will leave the arcade forever, you will no longer enjoy the benefits of the arcade, you will not have to worry about the threat of death, and you will never be able to come to this place again, even if you have an invitation card, how about it, isn't it attractive?" After the Demon King finished speaking, he smiled mischievously.

Yi Xuan's heart was light when he heard this, he didn't know if this was attractive to others, but it was definitely a good thing for him, unlike other people who voluntarily entered the game hall to gain ability, Yi Xuan came to the game hall by himself and was deceived into it, if he knew that Shen Pengfei brought him to such a place, he would not have come, and now the reason why he is so desperate to play the invitation card is that the main reason is the relationship between lifespan, and now life span is all made up, Live well and leave behind the more than 20 years you have passed, and you still have 60 years of life.

And now I am a multimillionaire, so my future life, in a Shanghainese dialect, should not be too comfortable. Without the threat of death, taking the money to travel around the world feels much more enjoyable than coming to this game hall every day. If you quit now, you will definitely enjoy the rhythm of a lifetime.

Thinking so in Yi Xuan's heart, there was a hint of joy on his face, and he subconsciously wanted to reach out to get the card, but when it reached out in the air, Yi Xuan suddenly felt that something was wrong.

I'm afraid of having anything, if Yi Xuan is still the same ordinary person he used to be at this time, someone asked him if you get 10 million one day, but lose it again, what will you do? He will definitely say, what is there to do, live. But when he really loses 10 million again, it is estimated that no one will be so calm.

This is the case for him now, but what he has to lose is not money, but the ability of this body to surpass ordinary people, if he gives up, can he bear it?

Yi Xuan retracted his hand hesitantly, he had mixed feelings in his heart, he had always thought that he wanted to leave the game hall, and he had a grudge against Shen Pengfei from beginning to end, but when the opportunity really appeared in front of him, he suddenly felt that he couldn't make up his mind again.

"And what about the other card?" Yi Xuan didn't think about this problem that made him difficult to choose, but set his eyes on another card.

Seeing his reaction, the Demon King seemed to be very satisfied and smiled slightly, seeing that he had long expected that Yi Xuan would definitely not be able to help but ask this. So he handed the card with the skull pattern forward. Continued: "This card represents the choice of fate, and by choosing this card, you will be able to go to the second floor of the arcade. ”

"Second floor?" Yi Xuan subconsciously asked rhetorically, his heart jumped, this is what he has been pursuing, although he wants to go to the second floor for his life, but this is already a goal deeply imprinted in his mind. I didn't expect the invitation card on the second floor to be obtained in this way.

"So, can you tell me what's on the second floor?" At the beginning, when Yi Xuan knew about the second floor, he was very curious about the second floor, mysterious and weird. Later, after the statement of the man in black, Yi Xuan was looking forward to the place where he could live forever, but today, after all this and facing the demon king, I don't know why Yi Xuan vaguely felt that the second floor seemed to have an unspeakable fear.

The Demon King squinted and stared at Yi Xuan for a while, as if he wanted to penetrate his brain to see his consciousness, Yi Xuan was a little hairy by him: "What's wrong?" ”

The Demon King finally spoke: "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't tell you, because the second floor has a different meaning for everyone, there are huge threats there, there are also endless opportunities, you may die tragically in fear and pain, or you may gain infinite power and eternal life, everything is possible there, but what you can find there, only you can find the answer by trying it yourself."

This answer is too ambiguous, it sounds like a purgatory on earth, and it seems to be a world of opportunity, what kind of place can there be such a contradictory existence? Yi Xuan's curiosity was aroused again by the words of the Demon King.

"Okay, so make your choice, do you want to go back to your old peaceful life and spend a leisurely life, or go to the unknown world, adventure and struggle?" The Demon King was very good at seizing the opportunity, and just when Yi Xuan began to be in a dilemma, he immediately urged him to make a choice. As he spoke, he looked at him with a strange smile on his face.

This smile has always flashed on the Demon King's face since he first entered the room and when he saw him, especially when this expression was shown from a skeleton.

He seemed to be observing Yi Xuan, and as if he was testing Yi Xuan, as if there was some greater opportunity or crisis waiting for this Yi Xuan behind such a choice.

Looking at the expression of the Demon King, Yi Xuan fell into deep thought on the choice of the two cards, and the Demon King did not continue to urge him, but patiently held the two cards and stood in front of Yi Xuan.

Is it all over to live a normal life? Travel around the world, get married and have children happily like a normal person? Just imagine that Yi Xuan already feels very happy, but what about after doing that? Continuing with the ordinary life?

Yi Xuan suddenly thought of Yang Kai, in order to pursue a place like the game hall, he did not hesitate to give up his ten years of life. And I'm here myself, and I still want to quit like this. Yi Xuan shook his head silently, the adventurous cells in his blood began to become active, since it was a lifetime to live, why not let himself live a wonderful and exciting life? There was no such opportunity before, but now that you are in the midst of it, how can you give it up?

Thinking of this, Yi Xuan's face finally showed a firm expression, and he suddenly said loudly: "I choose to go to the second floor"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand violently and snatched the skull card from the demon king's right hand, as if he was afraid that he would regret it.

"Hahaha." The Demon King was amused by Yi Xuan's actions, and laughed loudly, as if he was very happy for Yi Xuan's choice, but in Yi Xuan's eyes, his heart was a little hairy, how to look at it, how to feel that his choice of this card was what the Demon King wanted.

The Demon King ignored his suspicious gaze, and with a flip of his left hand, the white card disappeared, so that even if Yi Xuan wanted to regret it, it would be impossible.

"Okay, your mission is complete, now you can go out, with this card, you can go to the second floor at any time, but remember, once you enter the second floor, you can't easily leave, so please finish everything you need to do before you set off, so as not to leave any regrets." As he spoke, the Demon King gently patted Yi Xuan on the shoulder, as if comforting a child who had done something wrong.

Yi Xuan's heart is even more apprehensive now than when he made the choice just now, what? Can't easily leave when you enter the second floor? Doesn't that sound like a good feeling?

"Can't leave? What do you mean? Yi Xuan asked loudly, but the demon king turned around, and the figure had already walked into the void behind him. The surroundings fell into the dead darkness that Yi Xuan had just entered.

It's definitely too late to regret it, Yi Xuan sighed, and said in his heart that he was wrong to choose this card? At this moment, in front of Yi Xuan's eyes, a little light suddenly came, the light formed a rectangle, it looked like a door, groped his way over, and touched the position of the doorknob after three touches and two touches.

Gently unscrewed, the noise of the game hall outside suddenly came, bringing Yi Xuan back to reality from the void, and when he turned around, it was still black that could absorb all the light.

Stepping out and closing the door casually, Yi Xuan looked down at the card in his hand, the texture of the black card was very hard, it felt like some kind of metal, because he was too anxious when he took the card just now, the sharp corners pierced his palm at some point, and a little blood stained the pattern of the skeleton red, it looked like a bloodthirsty monster, and it felt a little hideous.

"Hey, you're finally out." Vera's voice suddenly came, and Yang Kai followed behind her. Yi Xuan raised his head, although it had only been a few hours apart, it felt like a world away when he saw them again.

Vera also looked very excited, and swooped down to hug him, jumping and jumping with joy. "Thankfully, how's it going? Is the mission accomplished? ”

"Yes." Yi Xuan nodded, it had been successfully completed, and he lit up the card in his hand as he spoke. "This is the invitation card to the second floor."

"Really?." Vera snatched it up at once, looked at it a few times in her hand, and then handed it over to Yi Xuan with some reluctance, "Congratulations, I'm so glad that you finally fulfilled your wish." Anyway, when are you going to go up to the second floor, remember to come back and see us when you go up, tell us what it's like there, and if it's good, I'll go up and have a look. Seeing that Yi Xuan successfully completed the task, Vera's words also became more.

Yi Xuan smiled bitterly in his heart, whether he would fulfill his wish or jump into another fire pit he still didn't know. But there is no need to talk to them about this, so he shrugged his shoulders helplessly and said, "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, once you go to the second floor, you won't be able to come back." "Can't come back? Why? Yang Kai asked in surprise

Yi Xuan told the two of them in detail about the situation he had just encountered inside, anyway, according to the man in black, the people who went up to the second floor couldn't reveal information to the first floor, anyway, he hadn't gone up to the second floor yet, and it wouldn't be a foul to talk to them.

Vera and Yang Kai nodded as they listened, sweating deeply for Yi Xuan's magical experience, "There is still such a rule, it seems that the second floor is really mysterious." After listening to Yi Xuan's speech on the second floor, Yang Kai said with emotion, as for what Yi Xuan said about the demon king against the player or something, he didn't think it was too difficult in his heart, but it was just from fighting against the computer to fighting against people, and it was estimated that if he chose this task, he could easily win.

"yes." Yi Xuan nodded, he didn't expect that there would be such a rule before he went in. "Eh, by the way, I've been talking for a long time, where's Neo?" Yi Xuan suddenly remembered that there was no shadow of Neo in front of him, could it be that that guy hadn't come out yet?

Subconsciously turned around, but he was greeted by a white wall, and the door he walked out of just now was completely gone.

Yang Kai and Vera were silent for a moment when they heard Yi Xuan's question, obviously they didn't see Neo come out, seeing Yi Xuan's worried look, Vera comforted: "It's okay, maybe he just took a little longer than you chose the game." ”

Yi Xuan nodded, "Yes, it should be like this." However, an ominous premonition rose in his heart, Neo has always been a second-class character, he can patiently choose the game for several hours, for Yi Xuan, such a scene is a little unimaginable, according to his usual style, it is likely that the first or two games have already pressed the confirmation button, if that is the case, it is not out yet, there are two possibilities, first, with the player, the confrontation has entered a white-hot stage, and both sides cannot win. But this is too unlikely.

Second, it is the last thing Yi Xuan wants to see, Neo may have failed. As for what the result will be in the event of failure, it is unknown.

However, none of the three of them wanted to admit it, and no one wanted to say it, so everyone held on to one in ten thousand and comforted each other.

"Twenty-four hours anyway, maybe he wants to wait a little longer, wait for a game that suits him." Vera said with a cheerful smile.

"Yes, yes." Yang Kai also said.

"Okay, then let's wait for him to come out." Yi Xuan also said aloud, and as he spoke, the three of them found a place to sit down, staring at the white wall in front of them without blinking.

Although it is impossible to change the result by waiting, in any case, as teammates, they hope to be able to do something for Neo, so that when Neo comes out, they will know that they still have such a strong backing, and no matter how Neo is inside, everyone wants to know at the first time.

This is a whole day, the door has never appeared again, as if it has never appeared, Neo has never appeared, waiting for hunger, the three of them went out to buy something to eat back, waiting for sleepy, the three of them took turns in the position of the merchant to lie down and squint for a while, so until the next day was almost noon, Yi Xuan was lying on the merchant's recliner to sleep, suddenly felt someone pull himself, suddenly woke up, Yi Xuan's first thought was Vera They called themselves, did they say: "Is Neo out?"

Yi Xuan jumped up from the chair and almost fell, a person stretched out his hand to help, which stopped the momentum of his fall forward, Yi Xuan looked over with his hand, it was actually a businessman.

"How are you?"

"Nonsense, this is my territory, what? Can't come yet? The merchant was not surprised, and asked with a smile.

"Oh, no." Yi Xuan said and sat down beside him.

"You're not going to spend the night here, are you?? Hehe, although there is no concept of time here, it looks like you haven't been home for a long time. The merchant sat down in his recliner and shook it.

"I'm waiting for a friend." Saying that, Yi Xuan looked in the direction of the wall through the merchant's door, on the recliner next to the wall, Vera was sleeping on Yang Kai's lap, Yang Kai also nodded vigorously, it seems that Neo still hasn't come out.

Looking at the watch, twenty-four hours have already passed, and it seems that it is really a failure, so Neo is dead? Yi Xuan couldn't help but feel a feeling of sadness in his heart, and it was a little unbelievable.

"Hey, are you alright?" The merchant seemed to sense something, and asked with rare concern.

"It's nothing, it's just that the world is crazy." Yi Xuan got up and walked to the wall.

Woke up Vera and Yang Kai, and showed the time in their hands to the two, the two did not speak, of course they knew what the time exceeded what it meant, after such a long wait, they actually had a vague answer in their hearts, but they didn't expect this answer to be so cruel.

"Go back, you're tired." Yi Xuan said, turning around and walking towards the outside of the game hall, at this moment he felt extremely tired.
